Well, I didn't get the cluster finished up yesterday, I had to work on my taxes....

I finished it up this afternoon. I polished the lens with some red rouge compound on my buffer. If you do one don't do ANY polishing on the side with the printed numbers and letters. Only wipe it off with a very soft cloth slightly dampened with clear water, nothing else.

Our power was out for 3 hours tonight.. Found out a while ago that a whole town 12 miles South of us was out also. Finally got it back on about 30 minutes ago.

I also have a van tilt column that I am going to use in this project so I will get it ready to install in the next couple of days. I need to shorten the intermediate shaft for it and move the NSS down lower on the column.
